Witch's HollowStained Hourglass Escapes LLC.Escape roomIRLAbsolutely LOVED this room. Amazingly immersive, some really special game mechanics, and a great GM!
The Pentex ConspiracyMass EscapeEscape roomIRLGreat room! Very immersive and lots of different puzzles/challenges. There are "side quests" for bonus points which worked out perfect for our group (even though we only completed one). While not very scary, the last room was a bit spooky, and was too much for my sensitive kiddos (which is when the side quests really came in handy!). Just a heads up for anyone who may be particularly sensitive. We all had a really great time and the flow of game play was great.
A Very Merry MysteryMystery Soup Escape Rooms [prev. Lock & Clue Escape Rooms]Escape roomIRLA great addition to Mystery Soup! Very family friendly, lots of different styles of puzzles, heart warming theme. Some of us had done the room when it was The Inheritance, but this room really is significantly different. It did not feel like the same room at all. There are MANY puzzles, which was great for our larger sized group, but they are also fairly quick puzzles so it doesn't feel overwhelming. Highly recommend!
The Boring OfficeStained Hourglass Escapes LLC.Escape roomIRLSO fun! There is nothing boring about this office. The whimsy was strong with this room. Charming, magical, with fun puzzles that were not too easy or too hard!
Rocky Point ParkRI Riddle RoomEscape roomIRLWhat a special room! Nice variety of puzzles and the theme was deeply incorporated. The immersion and theme of this room really knocks it out the park. Challenging for sure, but every minute was fun!
Timeliner: Train Through TimeThe Escape Game - DedhamEscape roomIRLFirst, the absolute best part of this place is the people. We interacted with four different employees and every single one of them was absolutely lovely! I spoke with someone on the phone who was incredibly helpful with scheduling, the person at the front desk when we first arrived who was so friendly and told us all about the different locations and games, our game master who was warm and helpful, and the person at the front desk when we left who we chatted with briefly about other escape rooms. Customer service knocked it out of the park! The room itself was a very fun theme and story. A nice variety of puzzles and even though there is tech, the room didn't overly rely on it, which we like. We played with four people, which felt like a good number for the amount of puzzles and the space. A very fun escape room!
Space PiratesMystery Soup Escape Rooms [prev. Lock & Clue Escape Rooms]Escape roomIRLReally special room with some awesome technology! Minimalist design (appropriate given the theme) so there's not a lot to get distracted by. Our game master was great at guiding us when we needed a little insight (finagling certain puzzles just right, etc.) Was a great room for our young teens - not scary at all and the story/puzzles flowed nicely. Just a fun room!
Monster in the MuseumRI Riddle RoomEscape roomIRLThere is love and care in every part of this room! I love how RI Riddle Room incorporates RI into their rooms - the special nods make the rooms so unique. Great puzzles, including one I didn't personally get to do, but that my husband absolutely LOVED. This room was great for our 6 person team because we were able to divide and conquer. Teamwork is ESSENTIAL in this room. The live actor aspect made this room incredibly special - both in the theme/storytelling and the logistical functioning of the room. A warning that while not terrifyingly scary, this room was too scary for one of our members and though there was a space she could feel a little more comfortable, there is no real escape from the scary parts. (We should have definitely assumed given the name of the room and the live actor aspect.) We were able to make it work, and appreciate the actors/GMs preserving the story for us while also being sensitive to our nervous teammate. We were the 5th group to play and it already felt really smooth, which is very impressive considering how new this room is! The stars of the show are truly the actors - they guided the story while performing beautifully. Long story short - this was a very fun room with good puzzles, great storytelling and excellent actors.
